Friendly, Affordable Legal Conveyancing in Newcastle

At Woodgate Lawyers in Newcastle, we’re well aware of financial stakes involved in braving the property market these days. That’s why we like to be transparent about our fees, and aim to make our legal conveyancing services affordable for everyone. With each conveyance, we’ll even offer to set up wills for two at no extra cost.

We’ll explain all the various enquiries so you can decide which ones are appropriate for your property. Stamp Duty (a State Government tax), which is usually the greatest cost associated with your purchase, is payable on the contract.

The amount payable depends on the purchase price of the property. Some first home buyers may be exempt from Stamp Duty or entitled to a discount, and our experts will be happy to advise you on any of these issues.

Residential property sales

You’ll very likely have to pay for other costs associated with the sale of a property. To help with your budgeting, we can give you estimates of these charges by other parties. For instance , it’s a legal requirement that any person undertaking the sale of a residential property must prepare a proposed contract, and have it available for intending buyers to look at. This contract must include:

Council s149(2) Certificate: $53.00

Sewer Diagram: $25

Titles Searches: approx. $100.00
